SHE WAS IN MOURNING.

Another lady who had known Miss
Folsom said that as she remembered it
Miss frankie began one term as regular
attendant at the school. She said that at
this time Mrs. Folsom was in mourning
for her husband, and Miss frankie wore
half-mourning dress. The young girl did
not go in society other than that of her
schoolmates, partially from her age, and
partially from the fact of her mothers
mourning. All who remember her speak
in the highest terms of her mothers re-
tinement and culture. They say, too, that
Miss frankie was an unusually dignified
miss for one of her years, and, while not
strikingly beautiful. was always consid
cred an unusually attractive and interest
ing schoolgirl.
Her visit to st. Paul was cut short one
summer, owing to some family troubles,
of which the particulars are not known,
and as Captain Huddleston moved away
soon after, Mrs. Folsom and her daughter
never again visited this city.

delightful boudoir at the White \ n
House, at which even the sleepy \

gripsack reveal a secret? =
From undergoing just such trials
as those foreshadowed and harassed
by state affairs the President fell sick.
Crowds had no compassion, Congress
was impatient for his message, and in
the late hours he sat by an open win
dow and prepared the document.
The President was down and Grip
pied with rheumatism, and the long
faces of the physicians in attendance
betokened protracted illness.
One doctor made public mention
that this illness of the President was
critical, and perhaps fatal, and that
he might not live to see another year.
Why such scare was gotten up, that
doctor only knows.
Now this would never do, thought
she. A thousand eyes were on him,
and thousand ears had caught this
ominous warning. What to do was
a quick resolve, and how to outwit
this evil portent was a woman's
chance to hold her husband on his
pinnacle and surprise the country.
She did it.
And hence we find them at the
boudoir fireplace, while the poodle
slumbered quietly. Just then she
whispered something in his ear.
What was his answer? Did he
say, "Pd like to do it just to spite the
doctor, but they'd have my name in
thousand prints 2"
But what of that? She had de-
termined that thousand papers
should proclaim "the President is we'll
and walks about without his cane"
She fastened off, and after a while
the attendant rubbed his swollen
limbs and anon the pains subsidized;
he slept the sleep of the just, and
arose recuperated. And so it hap
pened that the press rebuked the doc
tors business, and proclaimed the
sudden restoration of the Presidents
health.
What it was that cured him is the

4 Costume Tor Comfort.

The Oriental races, who have had to
find out for themselves how best to bear
torrid temperature, ages ago adopted
costumes fiom which everything tight,
stiff and heavy is excluded. Loose gar
m ents of soft, hight, open-meshed ma
terial constitute their principal dress.
The turban, as ali know who have tried
it, is infinitely cooler and hygienically
safer than any kind of hot weather lead
gear worn by western people. Probably
the latter would never adopt the flowing
Oriental robes. which certainly are not
well designed for the violent physical
eTeItions required for the catching of
ferries and trains. But why should not
the central idea, the banIshment of ali
stiff, hard, close-ftting garments be
utilized

Uselni Hints.

Powdered cloves is very enectual in
keeping away red ants.
Use powdered starch 20 take fresh
stains out of table liner.
Strained bran water is the best for
washing embroidery in cruel of silk.
If paper has been laid under the car
pet all dust may easily be removed with
il.
Sandpaper will whiten ivory knife ham
dies that may have become yellow with
use OF age.
Keep hops tightly packed in a dry,
close place. By exposure TO the air they
lose their flavor.
Some one says that baked ripe, sound
quinces are very nice. Simply wash
them and remove the blossom. Bake
them in an earthen dish, With water
enough to cover the bottom of the dish,
adding sugar, and, if desired, spices.
Serve hot with cream.
Two ounces of soda dissolved in a
quart of hot water will make ready
ard useful solution for cleaning old
painted work preparatory to repainting.
This mixture, in the above proportion.
should be applied when warm, and the
woodwork afterward washed with water
to remove all traces Of soda.
There is qualitative test for butter so
simple that any housewife can put il
into successful practice. y clean piece
of white paper is smeared with little of
the suspected butter. The paper is then
rolled up and set on fire. II the butter
Is pure the smell of the burning paper is
rather pleasant but the oder is dis
tinctly talIowy If the butter is made up

Farmers families almost universally
during the hot weather in summer use
more or less salted fish. Freshening
salmon and mackerel in sour milk makes
it very much nicer than when soaked out
in water also dried fish ana salted
trout. Soaked in enough milk to cover
the fish, let it stand twenty-four hours
in the milk, then wash in pure water till
the milk is all out, and it is great i'm
proyement, and can be broiled, fried or
boiled to suit the taste, and it pays Well
for the trouble in freshening it. Also
salt pork, when desired to fry for break
fast, is much better if soaked over night
in sour milk and washed in clear water
before frying in the morning. 1t is but
a trifle more work, and is enough better
to pay for the trouble.

The Fail Web-W Orms.

Among the unsightly objects which
meet the eye of the tidy orchardist,
none are more disgusting than the
nests of the fail wsb-worms, Hyphal
tria tertOr, Harris which are to be
( seen as early as the middle of July
and on through the remainder of the
season, upon the apple trees, shrubbeTy,
/ and shade trees. or late years this
caterpillar has been on the increase in
| New England, till now no insect which
/ infests our oIchards--if we except the
| cankerworm-plays so destructive part
the last half of the season as the fall
/ web-worm.
| In speaking of the web worm, many
! confound it with the tent caterpillar,
but this, although related 10 the same
family, belongs to a different class.
Besides this, the web-worm appears in
different season of the year, after the
tent caterpiller has left the stage of
action.
The eggs OF the web worm moth are
! laid on the under surface of the leaves
in Irregular patches of from fifty to
one hundred eggs. They are small.
round, and of honey yellow color,
( and are generally laid by the 10Th of
| July in this latitude, and hatch in
about nine days. The young cater
| pillar begins to spin its web as soon
as it leaves the egg, and the joint efforts
| of the colony soon cover the leaf on
which they hatch with a web, under
| which the young worms feed together,
eating only the softest part of the leaf
| They thus proceed from Leaf TO leaf and
branch to branch, eating the pulpy
portion OF the leaves. Tie remaining
skeleton, turning brown, becomes a
noticeable object from distance, look
| ing as II fire had scorched the foliage
The young worms are light yellow at
first, but as they grow older they as
sumo a greenish shade with a dark
stripe along the back and a yellow
stripe on the sides. 1t is spsrsely
dotted with hairs of a grayish color
which spring from yellow warts. The
worms are so variable in their workings,
that it is difficult to ind two exactly
alike. When full grown these cater
| pillars are rather more than an inch il
length. After completing their growth,
which occupies six weeks or more, they
! leave thir nests and wander about till
they find suitable places Of shelter where
they encase themselves in their coeoons,
composed OF slight web OF silk with
which are mingled the hairs from their
bodies. They rem ain in the pupa state
during the winter. the moth appearing
| the last Of June or the first of July.
These moths are pure white, and their
! Wings expand about one inch and a
| quarter.
| REMEDIES The most feasible plan
to destroy this pest seems 70 be to
watch for the dried appearance OF the
leaves, and as soon as the presence of
colony OF these caterpillars IS thus in
dicated, remove the branch containing
them and destroy them by burning or
crushing. when the worms are small
and it is difficult to reach them, a swab,
attached to pole, dipped in kerosene
and thrust into the nest will destroy
them.

4 Cat in a pitcher.

The guests of al uptown hotel who
were seated in a parlor last evening wit
messed rather funny occurrence. a
cat and a pitcher came waltzing in at a
lively pace. The pitcher was ahead of
the cat, and the pitcher went from the
right to the left, as if it was trying to
wag the cat. In the struggles of the
cat to rid he:self of the pitcher the lat
ter was smashed into smithereens
against an iron pillar. The pitcher had
been left in the hallway. The cat pohed
its head into the pitcher, found water
instead of milk, and in attempting to
withdraw its head got fastened in the
neck Of the chinaware and rushed into
the the parlor. Three ladies jumped on
a sofa, a dude picked up his walking
stick for defense, while an ex-Congress-
man from New Jersey thought he had
what the cat didn't-''rats.'

A House Invaded by RnttIesnakes.

Just over the line in Marion county,
! Georgia, in a mountainous section OF
the county, man by the name Of Becker
| has lived for several years. Mr.. Becker's
home is the ordinary one-room log cabin
| of that section, and his family consisted
of q wife, several small children and halt
dozen dogs. The Becker homestead
is located in picturesque ravine, near a
| number Of small caves in the mountain
side. Last week Mr.. Becker. returning
! at sundOwn from his days labor, found
Lis family some distance from the cabin
clinging TO each other in abject terror
The half dozen dogs lay dead in the yard, e,
and over their swollen bodies crawled
and hiSsed hundreds OF rattlesnakes.
The floor of the cabin and the entire
yard were covered with the poisonous
reptiles. Mrs. Becker informed her
husband that early in the afternoon
several snakes crawed into the yard,
coming from the direction of the near
est cave, which was about 200 yards
away. These were promptly killed by
the dogs, but in few minutes others
came in such numbers that the dogs
were overpOwered and stung TO death
by the poisonous fsngs OF the reptiles.
They soon began 20 come in still larger
numbers, and several of them entered
the house. Mrs. Berker and her
children then fed in terror, and left the
reptiles Ia full possession of the prem
ises. In the semi-darkness even the
bold mOuntaineer did not dare attack
the hideous invaders of his house, and
carried his family to the house of a
aeighbor, where they remained during
the night. Early in the morning AR.
Becker returned home, only to find the
snakes still in possession and largely re-
enforced. He summoned several or his
neighbOIs, and the party, armed with
shotguns, returned 10 the cabin to ex-
terminate the reptiles. Volley after vol
ley was fired into the writhing mass,
bat still snakes continued 10 crawl out
OF the brush and coil themselves in the
yard or cabin. After killing snakes for
an hour the party left, and the reptiles
were still in posses sion CT the cabin.
